He is Risen!!!!

He died for my sins
I am free because of Hhis death
He is Risen

What an amazing Love He has for us!


What a great Easter the Reyes family had!!!! We started our day off with Church with my parents and surprised them! They were so excited to see us at church that it probably made their day!

Grammy had found Corley's her dress at Dillard's and got her bow for her at Stanton Trade Days and I know I think she looks ADORABLE, but you know she does too! LOL

They had 3 Easter Egg hunts today, so we got them ready for their first one at my parents church. JP kept up and probably did better than some of the older kids! He loved it. The best part was is that Corley figured out that the eggs had candy in them. Once she learned that she was done and all she wanted was the CANDY! She just cracks me up!






So I tried to get JP to join us in the family picture but he did not want to join......

he noticed we were taking pictures. Still not a great family picture, but this is what I get for 2 kids that are 20 months apart! I should be happy that someone is looking at the camera, oh wait that would be me!



Second Easter Egg Hunt of the day was with MeMaw and PePAw. PePaw took her one her hunt so that I could take pictures.





She found all the suckers and would not turn lose of them! Yes count them....3


JP was smart, all the kids went one way were most of the candy was just laying out, he went the other way where there was the eggs and got lots more candy....can you say they are going to be on a sugar high. Must give out slowly, over a period of a long time, that's if John and I don't eat it all first.



3rd hunt at Grammy and Grandpa's! This time mommy and daddy got to help and Grammy took the pictures !!!









Just had to take these next two of JP. We went outside to swing and he ran behind the tree and it looked like it would be a fun picture!



How could I say "No" to you......



Happy Easter!!!

HE is Risen!

Amen


Love

The Reyes Family!

Just for fun!

I am loving the weather (well when its not blowing 50 mph) so we enjoy going outside when we get a chance. JP wanted to water so we let him, needless to say I was being chased around the yard by him! We had lots of laughs and had a blast, that's what its all about!





So I finally was able to get Corley to sit still. Well with the help of her in her highchair while eating breakfast!!!! I just loved the way she looked once I put the bow in her hair!!! I could wait to get finish with church to pick her up the her room!!!!

Friday nights

Welcome April! I have been ready for you to come and the wind to go!!!!! We were able to enjoy our Friday night outside for a little while! Corley was finally able to have the fun that JP has been able to have for a few years. The both now love running through the Williow Tree and grabbing onto the danling branches! I feel that I have a new son, he went and got his haircut and the lady that did it has always cut it so I don't know what happen. He went with daddy, so maybe daddy said something about a buzz cut, but anyways, its a lot shorter than I like, but he does look handsome and almost like young Matt Damon! What do all of you think, young Matt Damon or not? Of course he had to take his favorite toy outside to ride!

Loving life


I just love beautiful Spring mornings, March is usually so windy it is hard to go and play at the park. This past Saturday it was a nice cool morning with a light breeze, so the kids and I took full advantage of it! The only people that we sure where missing were our friends Reed and Grace, but next time!!! (of course daddy as well)


I was informed by a friend that they had re-done Hogan Park's playground and they did and its my new favorite spot! It has AstroTurf, so no more dealing with sand in the shoes!!! I always feel that I bring a good portion of sand home when we leave!


At first I was not sure if he was tall enough for this, but guess I was wrong!!! JP enjoys spinning back and forth on this!!!





This slide is pretty high and I was shocked that JP wanted to go down it. He has never been a big fan of heights for whatever reason, but guess since he is getting older he is conquering that fear and is becoming fearless!!! He loves this slide!

Seeing the joy in his face is priceless for me!!!!!




Don't worry there is some things for Corley as well, she just enjoys sitting on this and I will just push her and she will laugh and smile!!! I know she is not smiling now, but trust me!!!!





To slide or not to slide, that is the questions she is pondering! Well she chose not to slide, but I know one day she will. She is my daring one, so I was surprise when she did not slide.


Of course swinging is both of their loves!!!! They can let me push them for hours if I would let them! She will cry and tell you what she thinks when you take her out to go and play with some other things on the playground. I have to share this story with yall!!! When we arrived there was another mother there with her young daughter that was probably about 10-11 months old and her son that was probably 2 years old. The mother had the daughter in the swing and was putting her son in the swing, well Corley was not happy and she looked at me with, "Mommy I wanna swing face!" Needless to say she started to pout and cry and I took her by the hand and lead her away to play elsewhere, she took her thumb in her mouth (like always) and enjoyed other things before it was her time!!!! As I walked away I told her that we have to share the toys at the playground, and she just gave me the look of "I just wanna swing" So she was so happy when it was her turn!!!!
These are the things that Corley was sitting on, I am not sure what to call them, but JP enjoys walking across them and standing on them as the move a little bit!



This was another shocker to me that he did and he did it on his tummy!!! Don't worry, he did not fall off and he actually corrected himself so he wouldn't fall!!!


She is doing things to fast for me and I think its because I still see her so little. Once I moved her way from the other children swinging, she went to the stairs and started to step her way up with no help!!!!! She sure is doing things to fast for her mommy!


So we went to this park on Tuesday night and I did not have my camera as I wasn't planning on going, but Grammy wanted to see the park so we made a quick trip. JP needed help climbing up the rock wall then, but today, no help needed and managed to get up and climb over with no help of mommy!!!!! WAY TO GO JP!!!!!!

Haircut!!!!!

This was another first for Miss Corley! March 25, 2011 at 3:30 she got her first haircut!!!! My mom wasn't able go with us to take picture, but if you notice that lady under the dryer, well she was nice enough to take the pictures for me!!! I know most of you are thinking she is girl, let it grow, but I have always been told if you cut it or trim it up, that it will grow faster and thicker, well I did that with JP and it did! So I am taking my chances!!!

Corley before!!!

The first cut!!! She did really good. If you know Corley, she has to be in the mood to want to sit still, lucky for me my hair dresser was able to move with her!!! At first Corley did great and then she had enough of being still. Yes she takes after me in that department.








All done!!!! She is so cute! Ok I know I am biases what can I say!!!
No I am hoping that it just grows grows grows so I can do do something more with it! She has very fine hair to its hard to do much with right now!!!!

Saturday at the Park!

We headed to the park with some friends a few Saturday back and the kids had a blast!!!! Corley of course threw a fit when I took her out of the swing, as she loves it!!!! Here are just a few fun pictures that we took!!!!

JP showing off his muscle to mommy and sister!!! Corley was all over this piece of the playground, the hard part is that this is more designed for older kids, but she did have fun "running" up and down the walk way!!!!!


Here is a picture of JP's buddy Reed!!!! I told JP earlier in the morning that we would go to the park with Reed but he had to listen to mommy and take a nap.....well he did take a nap, but it was not a very long one!!!!! I think he was too excited about seeing his friend to sleep!!!!



Call Miss Hollywood please!!!! OH, and no pictures please!



One of the only ones I got of them together! Its so hard to take a sibling picture at this age and one day they will care, ok I hope they care!!!!!


I found a new park today and I can't wait to take them there this weekend!!! They both are going to love it!!!!!
